Paul you forgot to mention

Changing the blade is as easy as it gets and can be completed in a couple of minutes, and daily cleaning is made so easy that there is no excuse not to do it.I agree that the Van Dykes pro flesher is the nicest fleshing machine that I have ever seen. Van Dyke's outdid themselves with this one.Great job to all the folks at Van Dyke's who came up with this one. It is a winner!Like Paul, thanks to all the folks at Van Dykes for producing such a great product.If you haven't seen one yet, make sure that you stop by the Van Dyke's booth at the 2005 NTA convention in Sioux Falls and check it out. The only problem that I see is it almost looks to good to use.

Both Great Fleshers!

The blade change is basicly the same, however unlike my old Eager Beaver, Van Dykes has improved this process by installing a push button blade lock on their Pro Flesher so that the blade can not turn while you unscrew the nut to remove the blade. This makes it even easier, if you can believe it!

Like Jeff Foxworthy would say, this may be the first post that uses Eager Beaver, Flesher and Nut that does not offend anyone! (LMAO)
